Project Proven Employment: Job Club

07/30/2021

This Tuesday (8/3) at 1PM we kick off our Proven Expert Series for Job Club, Project Proven's reentry and employment class! This set of lessons features current and former Proven students excelling in different areas (academics, work, parenting, health, leisure, sobriety, community involvement, etc.) and willing to share their stories.

Two friendly reminders: 1) we’ll meet in the Student Success Center, room 132, just off 7th and Badger Streets, and 2) if you are interested in presenting on a topic, please let us know! We can find a Tuesday that works, or, if necessary, we can get creative and have you write or record something instead! Hope to see you there!

It's time!! Job Club (Proven employment) will return to campus on Monday February 15th at 1PM! We'll come together in our usual spot: Learner Support and Transition, which is just across from the Welcome Center in the Student Success Center (7th and Badger Streets). Please let a member of the Proven team know you'll be there! (Even a reply below works!) Come for a quick employment lesson, individualized support, and, most of all, the community!

*Entering the building, we’ll all need to complete a symptom questionnaire, and, in the classroom, we’ll wear masks and keep safe social distance, but we’ll be in person nonetheless! I will meet you at the door to make sure you don’t run into any problems with check-in :)
